[Foundation-l] Status of cloak requests

[Newyorkbrad (Wikipedia)]

I am becoming concerned by this situation. Someone, from the Office if
necessary, should contact Freenode at a high level and have them
prioritize this matter. Because IP's can be easily harvested when
people go into the IRC channels uncloaked, this is a user privacy
issue and needs to be resolved at the earliest possible time.
